Noctilucent Neowise 8K

The observation of Comet Neowise in conjunction with intense Noctilucent Clouds (NLC) was truly a once in a lifetime event. Photographed from the Bavarian Alps in June and July 2020 and captured in glorious 8K resolution. Comet Neowise was the brightest observable comet in the Northern hemisphere since Comet Hale–Bopp in 1997 and won't make another pass for nearly 6000 years. NLC's are the highest clouds in Earth's atmosphere, located in the mesosphere at altitudes between 76 to 85 km. When the sun hits these high altitude clouds about an hour before sunrise a distinct silvery glow can be observed.
